Common questions to ask during a debriefing • In your opinion, what do you think are some of the decisions that have been made here today? • When you report back to your constituency, what would you tell it was the most important thing(s) that happened today? • What issues remain open and should be on the agenda for the next meeting? Common issues to remind participants of during a debriefing • Dialogue is a long-term process that requires commitment; • Small gains within the dialogue room are important; • The overall picture of how far the group has come; and • Even when people have trouble agreeing on emotional issues, the fact that they are sitting together and speaking can be seen as an achievement.
